Alpinestars Clothing

Bought a size 11, which is my true size. Felt a bit tight, but after the first ride, they were fitting like slippers. Very comfortable and well made. Still to get them wet, but I am confident they will keep me dry.

Nice snug feeling without feeling restricted

Alpinestars might be slightly on the small side for women’s sizing but their products do fit really well.

I bought this for summer riding and it’s been great so far. It provides enough protection for the road, but still keeps me cool when I hit the trails. It’s very comfy, with a soft collar and well designed cuffs, plus plenty of pockets to lose stuff in. Would highly recommend!

I have a couple of other boots from Alpinestars, both size 42, with these I needed to go up half a size to 42.5. Excellent returns from Sportsbike made this easy. I had tried other short boots and found that they had a higher toe box, which made it a pain to change gear. I will be switching from one pair to another for different occasions, adjusting gear lever would be a complete faff. These boots are well made and I recomend them.

Comfortable on and off the bike

This is a snug fit, the material feels nice, and the opening is large enough to not cover the nose, and to enable the use of glasses. It protects from wind blast and doesn't become clammy in the heat. Sadly, for me at least, the stitching creates pressure points resulting in excruciating pain after about an hour; by adjusting the opening when putting it on, those pressure points can be moved to different places, but they cannot be reliably eliminated or avoided. So, this was a relatively expensive and disappointing purchase.
